Harrison Ford(哈里森·福特)Harrison Ford was born on July l3, 1942, in Chicago, to an Irish Catholic(天主教的)father and a Russian Jewish mother.
Although young Ford had no direction(方向)in life, not to mention no motivation(動(dòng)力)to learn, he continued in his studies and attended Ripon College, in Wisconsin. A below average student, Ford took an acting class to try raising his grade point average. This didn't help since Ford was kicked out of(開除)Ripon just weeks before graduation—but the acting classes did serve another purpose—they gave Ford a glimmer(微光)of direction in his life.
Ford left for Los Angeles with the hopes of pursuing(從事)an acting career. Once in LA, Ford received bit parts in television series, but this was not keeping him busy nor was it paying the bills. He took a job as a carpenter with the task of building a recording studio. Producers and directors told Ford that he did not have what it takes to be all actor, but he did have an ability for carpentry and taught himself about it with the help of a library book he borrowed.
And then he began the relationship with director George Lucas. Ford was offered a role in the film American Graffiti《美國(guó)畫師》, but gave it up when he learned his salary was not half as big as what he was earning as a carpenter. When he was offered a slight pay raise, he finally accepted the role.
This was the beginning of a beautiful friendship, which led to his historical role as Han Solo in Star Wars《星球大戰(zhàn)》. After his work in Star Wars, Ford performed in another star-turning role, this time for directors Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, in the first installment(分本演出)of the Indiana Jones series(系列影片), Raiders of the Lost Ark《奪寶奇兵》.
With dramatic(生動(dòng)的)roles in films such as Presumed Innocent《推定無罪》, Patriot Games《愛國(guó)者游戲》, The Fugitive《逃亡者》, Clear and Present Danger《迫在眉睫》, The Devil's Own《與魔鬼同行》, and Air Force One《空軍一號(hào)》(to name just a few), it's no wonder Ford is one of the most respected actors of his time.
Although 7 of Ford's films are among the top grossing films(最高票房收入)of all time, he has never actually won an Academy Award. He was recognized for his work in the 1985 drama Witness《目擊者》with a Best Actor Oscar nomination(提名)and has received a lot of other prestigious(有聲望的)awards.
Respected as a sex symbol(象征)by women worldwide, the person behind the most beloved heroes in film's history is regarded as an excellent actor by both sexes. He earns a salary of at least $ 20 million per movie.

There was Batman Forever, then a sequel to Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, which didn’t quite retake the sparkle (光彩) of the earlier one. Next came Liar, Liar, a terrific success everywhere, putting him back on top. Then came The Truman Show, a film which proved Jim Carrey was more than just a funny face.
